FastTrak100 User Manual

Checking CMOS Settings

No changes are necessary in the Mainboard CMOS Setup for resources or drive types. Since FastTrak100 is a PCI Plug-n-Play (PnP) device, the Interrupt and Port address resources are automatically assigned by the Mainboard’s PCI PnP BIOS.

The FastTrak100 system resources including port address, interrupt, and BIOS address are automatically determined by the system PnP BIOS. To customize IRQ settings, enter the Mainboard BIOS’s Advanced PCI setup and follow the manufacturer’s procedures. When the system is limited by IRQ resources, the FastTrak100 card can be set for the same IRQ as other PCI cards that support PCI interrupt sharing.

For the FastTrak100 to be the bootable IDE controller, confirm in the mainboard’s Standard CMOS Setup that the drive types (for hard disk drives) are set for “Unknown Device” or “Not Installed” (see below). If there is a “Hard-Disk Drive Sequence,” place the FastTrak controller as the second choice in searching for a bootable device. No changes are needed for CD-ROM drives that are attached to the mainboard IDE controller.
